I have a down bag that was given to me Xmas of 1973. It was made by a
company in Nevada City, CA called Black Forest, which no longer exists.
I literally had, until about 3 years ago, used the heck out of this bag
and I still use it for guests. I suppose I have washed it about 5 times
over the years with down soap from REI.
